Very comfortable small (best for 2 people) unit with good security and quiet. Jorge was very helpful. Very eco oriented including bathroom tissue disposal. We did not have a car, so selection of where to eat out was limited--otherwise be willing to walk up and down hills or take a taxi (no good public transportation).

Amazing hosts and place. You are definitely in the jungle. A monkey was swinging from a tree and went on our roof the first night. The coffee shops were a 30 second walk away. Jorge and Mariam were so sweet and gave us great suggestions on places to eat and visit. Highly recommended.

We’re also glad you felt the coffee shops were so close and that our local tips helped you make the most of Monteverde. Thank you again for staying with us, and you’re always welcome back!

The hosts communicated in a timely fashion and gave us detailed instructions and photos to find their home in Monteverde. In this area, there are no street signs or house numbers so their notes made it easy to find. The home was clean and well equipped for our stay. It is very convenient to use as a base for hiking and bird-watching in the Monteverde Cloud Forest and Curi Cancha reserves.
Lovely landscaping at the home
Rainbow views from the deck of the home
Motmot in the trees  next to the nearby El Camino Gelato shop

Great place for adventures in Monteverde

We had a great time in this apartment. It is a 2 minute walk to Stella's and a local artist market. It was a short drive into Santa Elena and also the Biological Reserve. It was a great base for our adventures around Monteverde.

Great stay in Monteverde

We had a very nice stay in this property. Just two minute walk to Stella’s which had excellent food. Place was clean and comfortable. It’s very dark there at night so do take flashlights. There is a magnificent tree in the back where you can see birds on a daily basis.

This was a good location, central to the areas we wanted to visit. Lots of birds and other wildlife seen from the deck. Groceries and restaurants close by. The roads are not for beginners.

Birdwatching extraordinaire!

What a great spot for birding! We saw so many right off the balcony. We also saw capuchins, squirrels, and a coati. The apartment was clean and just as advertised. Wonderful spot, close to Monteverde, Curi Cancha, and Santa Elena. Hoping to return in another year!

Jorge and Miriam were very responsive , and we enjoyed our time there . We had a few visits from spider monkeys in the trees nearby . The trees also provided enough shade to keep the house from getting too hot and didn’t need AC. Thanks !

Monkeying around in Monteverde

We enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean and we enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the birds and monkeys in the tree. The only down time was that we had the middle condo and the noise from the upper unit was very annoying at times.

Great rainforest location

This property was as advertised. The owners were very helpful and available. Cute, comfortable apartment with a great deck for birding. The grounds were a bit wild but it suited the environment. Walking distance to a little grocery store and restaurants. The forest reserve which was accessible by trails from the property was a bonus.
